Hi all,

The company I am working with is currently using Pandaboard (http://pandaboard.org/) for development purposes and we need to build a small case that can house the board, PSU (5V DC) for demo purposes.

Unfortunately since no one in the company has expertise in making one, we are looking to see if any interested modders would like to take up this small project and create a case for us within a stipulated time frame. Of course, we will also reimburse for materials and labor cost, as long as within reasonable range.

The board itself looks like this:

If anyone is interested, please reply here or email me at jm.tan@hiraku.tv

Thanks smile.gif

Thanks for the feedback, dude. Let me answer some of the questions.

how big is the psu, how does it look like? internal/external?
We are still deciding on it, but it should be a small PSU that is located internally. The board only needs 5V DC so the PSU should be roughly same size or slightly bigger than the board itself.

any heat problem that need to be addressed?
Actually we're still testing the board, but i don't think it will generate a lot of heat to require active cooling.

what is the final usage?
Demo unit for our company project. Need to show proof-of-concept tongue.gif

is it going to be static or moved around when used?
Static.

function or looks more important?
Currently function.

what kind of casing ideas do you have in mind?
Something lightweight and portable, maybe using acrylic plastic or some sheet metal.

Budget currently undecided yet, but you can give us a rough estimate and we can see if finance can give us the budget, because we have zero idea how much these things usually cost.
